Views from your community

The Charlotte, NC, area is sprawling and congested, and it could be Greenville’s future By Lisa Hallo

Remember the controversial approval of the Copperleaf subdivision in rural southern Greenville County last summer? Amidst strong public opposition, and despite the fact the subdivision did not align with the county’s Comprehensive Plan, the Greenville County Planning Commission approved the proposed development in late August 2016. In response, a community group – Citizens for Quality Rural Living – appealed the commission’s decision, a fight that appears to still be ongoing in the court of law. Or what about the more recent Woodruff Road and Highway 14 rezoning case? That particularly messy and contentious land use dispute involved a Sprouts Farmers Market grocery store, a local church, an adjacent cemetery, and many angry neighboring citizens. A close vote by County Council ultimately approved the rezoning, allowing the development to proceed. Nearby residents were not pleased, partly because the rezoning didn’t comply with the county-adopted East Woodruff Corridor Plan. That said, planning staff, planning commissioners, and the majority of Council members supported the rezoning request. Whether or not you agree with the ultimate outcomes of these disputes, the sheer number of rezoning requests brought before Council this year – and the number of approvals that didn’t comply with adopted plans – should indicate an obvious problem. Currently, adopted plans and policies are out of sync, making it confusing and frustrating to everyone — community members, government staff, elected officials, developers, and other stakeholders, especially after significant time, effort, and resources have been expended to create the plans in the first place. Upstate Forever rarely engages in specific land use disputes and, in fact, did not take

This growth could be positive if managed proactively. If we do not plan and act deliberately, however, we could lose the unique character and beauty that make this place so special. positions on the disputes described above. We work instead to establish land use plans and policies that accommodate growth more sustainably and balance economic development with other community priorities. We are also working to change the framework within which land use decisions are made. The 10-year update of the Greenville Comprehensive Plan is scheduled to kick off in the next few months. It is essential for citizens to participate in that planning process, support the plan’s adoption, and then demand policy action be taken to enact the plan’s recommendations. A county’s comprehensive plan should be the foundation for proactive growth management – clearly illustrating how and where new development should happen. But it means little without the policies, zoning, and land development regulations necessary to give it teeth. We urgently need more proactive growth management in Greenville County, which is already the same size as Mecklenburg County, the home of Charlotte, N.C., less than 30 years ago. And Greenville is projected to become home for more than 160,000 new residents by 2040. This growth could be positive if managed proactively. If we do not plan and act deliberately, however, we could lose the unique character and beauty that make this place so special. A recent study commissioned by Upstate Forever and partners highlighted that if land development trends continue, nearly 206,000 additional acres of land in Greenville County – primarily farms, forests, rural lands, and other open space – will be consumed by low-density subdivisions, strip malls, and parking lots by 2040. This sprawling pattern of development will be exorbitantly expensive to serve, and the estimated revenues produced will likely not cover half of the projected costs. What’s more, this trajectory will negatively impact quality of life for current citizens – exacerbating traffic congestion issues, gobbling up farmlands, and ruining the scenic beauty of many of our most prized natural places. Your voice is important in determining how Greenville will grow. It is critical that a diverse spectrum of county citizens are empowered to participate in the upcoming planning process. It is even more important that once they do – and the plan is adopted – county leaders take bold steps to enact land use policy that realizes the community’s vision. Otherwise, we could find ourselves facing another 10 years of sprawl, confusion, and rezoning disputes. Lisa Hallo is the land policy director at Upstate Forever.

It’s early November, which means it’s time for some local crank to write an annual letter to the newspaper about voter apathy. We know the letter by heart. Local elections matter most because they are what affect you the most. And by most, they mean tax dollars. And by tax dollars, they mean how they are spent. And then there is the usual hokum about how our children’s children will be affected by this vote. Yada, yada, yada. I have been reading them my entire life. Well, this year, I have opted to be the local crank, but I am going to write you a different letter. I am not going to write about how 10 percent turnout is pathetic. I am not going to write about democracy and our great nation. I am not going to write about the Founding Fathers. No, I am going to write about why you need to vote locally and then, more importantly, how to increase voter turnout. So, why vote locally? Because this is Greenville. We have done more. We have accomplished more. We should strive to be a place that votes better locally than anywhere else in America, because we strive to be a better place than anywhere else in the country. And by Greenville, I mean all of Greenville. Not just the city. Not just county offices. I mean all of the cities – Travelers Rest, Greer, Mauldin, Simpsonville, and Fountain Inn – located in our 795 square miles. I mean the fire districts. I mean the sewer districts. I mean the school board. I mean anything else where people get elected. If you have read this far, you likely are already somebody who votes locally. Good. Now, here is what you need to do. Get a pair of scissors. Cut this out of the Greenville Journal. Make some copies. Tape them to the doors of the houses of your neighbors who don’t vote. If you are reading this online, print it out and go straight to step four with the taping. If your neighbor complains, tell them if they voted in local elections they could help enact a law that would prevent you from taping things to their doors. They will look at you strangely. They will vote

next time around. If you are not someone who votes locally, and are still reading this far, I have news for you. Your neighbor is taping this to your door as you read. Thank them. Then go and vote on Tuesday. Get social. Yes, there is an election this week in the City of Greenville. You may have decided whom you are voting for. More than likely, you have no idea who is running. But if you do know about next Tuesday, tell people to vote. Put it on Facebook. Do a Snapchat. Tweet it. Email your friends. Call them next Tuesday. You don’t have to endorse anyone. Just tell them to vote. Invite them for a beer after work. Tell them it’s a hot new bar called The Voting Place, and give them the address of their local polling station. If they show up, they should have ID with them. It’s a win-win. Get out of your comfort zone. I live off Haywood Road. I see yard signs everywhere. I see signs as I drive to work downtown. You know where I don’t see that many, if any? Sterling. Dunbar. Nicholtown. Pettigru. White Oak. And many more neighborhoods that aren’t as politically active on the local level this time around. If you have time, go to those neighborhoods. Put up a $2 yard sign that says vote on Tuesday. Even if it gets five people to vote, that is a difference you made. If 50 people do this, that is 250 votes. All of a sudden, people start to take notice. The reality is we live in an amazing little slice of our wonderful nation. If we want it to continue to be that kind of place for people of all races, genders, creeds, backgrounds, and the like, then we must vote locally.

WHAT WE KNOW SO FAR ABOUT THE LAWSUIT AGAINST SHERIFF WILL LEWIS WORDS BY ANDREW MOORE

Now delivering from Lidl. Shipt delivers groceries from stores like Lidl in as soon as 1 hour. With Lidl, you get:

Savannah Nabors, a former employee for the Greenville County Sheriff’s Office, has filed a lawsuit against Sheriff Will Lewis that claims he sexually assaulted her during a business trip to Charlotte, N.C., in March. Lewis held a press conference on Oct. 19 and admitted to having a “consensual encounter” with Nabors but denied the allegations brought against him. Lewis also said he would remain in office despite the allegations. Here are some of the latest news updates regarding the lawsuit:

LEWIS SHOULD ‘VOLUNTARILY STEP ASIDE’ Gov. Henry McMaster has called for Lewis to resign. “It’s clear that Sheriff Will Lewis’ ability to effectively lead one of the state’s largest law enforcement agencies has been compromised by inappropriate actions – actions which he has acknowledged,” McMaster said in a statement last week. “It would be in the public’s best interest for him to voluntarily step aside. If I could remove him from office, I most certainly would,” he added. The governor’s latest comments mark a departure from an earlier statement made on Monday, Oct. 23, when he said, “I’m generally aware of the issue but have made no decision and don’t know if there is one to be made at this point.” McMaster now joins Lt. Gov. Kevin Bryant and other public officials in calling for Lewis to resign. In a statement issued Oct. 23, Bryant said, “An adulterous affair is bad enough, but the sexual abuse of a subordinate demands that Sheriff Lewis resign immediately. Women should never be subjected to this kind of behavior in

the workforce. He’s not only disgraced his family, but he’s also disgraced law enforcement across the state of South Carolina.” On Tuesday, Oct. 24, Greenville County Council voted unanimously to pass a resolution requesting the resignation of Lewis. Council members spent about 30 minutes in executive session before passing the resolution, which referenced “moral failure, infidelity, and personal indiscretions” that Lewis admitted to in the press conference. “County Council no longer has confidence and trust in his moral judgment, which are essential in leading the personnel under his command and carrying out his duties and responsibilities of providing for the safety and protection of Greenville County residents,” the resolution says. Councilman Joe Dill said he still had concerns about the potential misuse of taxpayer dollars. He plans to ask for a vote on Nov. 7 for a forensic audit of the Sheriff’s Office to examine how money is being spent by Lewis. County Council Chairman Butch Kirven noted that the Council’s resolution asked Lewis to “voluntarily resign” because state law and the Home Rule Act directly limit their authority over the employment status of the sheriff. Kirven said only the governor can suspend or remove Lewis as sheriff if he is criminally indicted. The S.C. Law Enforcement Division is investigating the allegations against Lewis. No charges have been filed. Lewis has since given no indication that he plans to step down. “As previously stated, I remain committed to handling this matter in the proper forum and in the proper manner as required by law. Therefore, I will make no further comments on this matter until the final resolution of the SLED investigation,” Lewis said in a statement last week.

GCSO ATTORNEY DISCUSSES LAWSUIT AGAINST LEWIS The general counsel for the Greenville County Sheriff’s Office held a press conference last week to address the lawsuit filed against Lewis. Lance Sheek, general counsel for the Sheriff’s Office, said he is unable to comment on the allegations due to rules governing pre-trial publicity. He did, however, address the legal process and timeline of events regarding the lawsuit. Sheek said a Lowcountry firm notified him earlier this year that Nabors planned to file a lawsuit. The firm then requested that the Sheriff’s Office retain all records related to Nabors’ employment, including emails, text messages, and other documents. “We made sure we locked down all information that we had in our possession related to the plaintiff and preserve that so it’s not purged from our records or otherwise lost,” said Sheek. “Then, of course, we reached out to the law firm to say, ‘Can you tell us what the nature of the allegations are?’” In August Nabors published a post about an assault in a blog; Lewis’ name was not mentioned. According to Sheek, Lewis immediately requested that the attorney contact the S.C. Law Enforcement Division for an independent investigation into the allegations. When Sheek contacted the law firm, he learned that it no longer represented Nabors. He then contacted the firm that took over the case to request a copy of a

verified complaint, and learned that the second firm was no longer representing her either. Nabors is now represented by Lauren Taylor, Kyle and Druanne White. Sheek said his office has contacted Nabors’ attorneys to request a verified complaint, but they have not yet received it. He also noted that his office has not yet been served with the lawsuit. “I have indicated we are willing to accept service on behalf of the Sheriff’s Office if they want to send it over,” Sheek said According to Sheek, it isn’t unusual for there to be a delay in serving a lawsuit after it is filed. “I certainly can’t speak to why we haven’t been served and don’t mean to imply one thing or another,” he said. “I’ve seen cases that take weeks to be served.” Sheek stressed that the Sheriff’s Office won’t be able to respond to the complaint until they are officially served the lawsuit. When questioned, Sheek said he doesn’t think the lawsuit has been a distraction to the employees of the Sheriff’s Office. “The men and women of this agency have surpassed anything I could ever hope for in a law enforcement agency,” he said. “They continue to do the work of this agency on a daily basis with a dedication that I find to be so admirable.” Sheek also said he won’t be able to comment on the SLED investigation until it has concluded. But he urged the community to “let the system work the way it’s designed to and then make a determination about the case at the appropriate time.” “We want fairness to all the parties,” Sheek added.

A FORK IN THE TRAIL

Trail Life USA’s Mark Hancock on how the Boy Scouts lost their way WORDS BY CHRIS HAIRE | PHOTO BY WILL CROOKS

hen the Boy Scouts of America announced earlier this month they would begin allowing girls to join their fraternity of young men, the Belton-based BSA alternative Trail Life USA issued a press release detailing their position on keeping their scoutingesque organization female free. Founded in 2013, Trail Life markets itself as a group for followers of traditional biblical values. Up until this point, the group was most noted for opposing the BSA’s about-face on gay scouts. In the four years since Trail Life was formed, the organization has seen its membership grow to 30,000 members in 48 states. We recently reached out to Trail Life USA CEO Mark Hancock to talk about his group and their place in a world in which the Boy Scouts sheds its more traditionalist beliefs as it adapts to changes in society. Here’s what he had to say. THE DIFFERENCES BETWEEN BOYS AND GIRLS “Every engaged parent and every good teacher knows that boys and girls learn different. We’re seeing great success in schools that are accepting that and moving in that area and understanding they’re just wired differently. They always have been different. So, we think it’s important to acknowledge those differences. We think it will be very difficult to create a program that tries to speak to and encourage each one of those, in light of those differences.” IS IT SMART FOR BOY SCOUTS TO ALLOW GIRLS? “If they are looking to increase their market, that certainly gives them greater potential to reach. My personal thought is that in order to gain that additional mar-

ket, you are going to give up some, if not more. Only time will tell. If their intent is to grow, which I can’t imagine what else it would be, if their is intent to grow their membership, maybe it’s a good move.” THE NEED FOR A MORAL COMPASS “Once you lose your compass, you lose your courage in your moral conviction. We think perhaps they’ve drifted from their compass. Ours says that the traditional values that have worked, there’s some secret sauce in there.” THE LACK OF AN EAGLE SCOUT AWARD IN GIRL SCOUTS “It’s a slight to girls to say, ‘That award you earned in that other program, that women designed, is not as good as our award. You need to come over here and get a male-designed award that was designed for boys because yours just doesn’t have that value.’ I think that’s a mistake.” GIRLS CRAVE ADVENTURE, TOO “I think it’s wonderful that somebody notes that girls like adventure. There are girls that want adventure as much as boys do. There are many girls who want that as much as boys do. A lot of boys aren’t interested in that at all. “I don’t think they’re going wrong by saying, ‘Girls want adventure, and we need to give it to them.’ I think they are going wrong by saying, ‘Girls want adventure and we need to give it to them in exactly the same way we give it to boys.’ I think that’s offensive to boys and that’s offensive to girls to say to them, ‘There’s nothing unique, there’s nothing wonderful, there’s nothing to celebrate about your differences.’”

FASHION FORWARD

Greenville designer Sarah Johnson unleashes her looks at New York Fashion Week in the Big Apple and the City of Lights WORDS BY LEIGH SAVAGE | PHOTO BY WILL CROOKS

One of her looks was featured in Vogue Italia online, and pieces from the show are gaining notice from several trade publications.

Sarah Johnson made a splash designing her own dress for the J. L Mann prom – a ’50s vintage style with layers of baby blue chiffon. Four years later, she’s making much bigger waves in the fashion industry, showing her looks at Fashion Week in New York City, as one of seven finalists in the Supima Design Competition, and later in Paris. “It’s been a whirlwind,” said Johnson, who earned a BFA in fashion design this spring from Kent State University in Ohio. Though she didn’t take the top prize, “It was a really good experience and it pushed me in a new direction.” Johnson got her start sketching at school and sewing small projects with her mom, and soon began taking classes with Eileen Bunch at Sew Creative on Laurens Road. “For Sarah, there has never been a fabric too difficult to sew or a skill too demanding to conquer,” Bunch said. “She’s always been up for the challenge.” After graduating from high school, she headed off to Kent State, one of the top schools in the nation for fashion design. During her time there, she was able to do internships in Paris and New York, and by her senior year, she

decided to submit a sketchbook for the prestigious Supima Design Competition at New York Fashion Week. “Each of the top seven design schools in the country choose one graduating senior to compete in this competition over the summer,” Johnson said. “All of spring semester I wasn’t sure it would be me, but they announced it at our final runway show of the year.” In the competition, designers use the Supima brand of fine cotton to create a line of evening wear. The contest promotes the product while giving young designers an opportunity to experience Fashion Week and make contacts in the industry. Johnson spent all summer on her five looks, developing color schemes, making sketches, and traveling to New York to do fittings. The show was held in September at Pier 59 Studios, a popular location for many top designers. “It was a pretty big show, and we were able to bring our family and friends,” Johnson said. In late September, she headed to Paris for another show featuring two looks from her collection. One of her looks

was featured in Vogue Italia online, and pieces from the show are gaining notice from several trade publications. Johnson said participating as Kent State’s representative was an honor, and the experience helped her push herself during the creative and construction phases. Her collection, “Fortitude,” was originally inspired by a Buddha statue that was scanned and found to contain a mummified skeleton. She built on that to create a collection inspired by Japanese costume, flight suits, and wrapping. She incorporated her love of color – evident in her pink hair – as well as cording, pleating, and embroidery. After spending most of September in the two fashion capitals of the world, she is recharging in Greenville with her parents, Sharon and David Johnson, and polishing up her portfolio before heading back to New York. “I’m looking for a smaller company, so I can have my hands on more,” she said. “I like the really creative, raw energy part of designing, and then the construction and engineering stage that I also really like. It’s like two separate halves of the same thing, and I want to do both.”

Greenville Drive wins Minor League Baseball’s top honor There are 160 teams in Minor League Baseball, and the Greenville Drive just won the John H. Johnson Award, the top award that honors the complete baseball franchise. “When we broke ground on Fluor Field more than 12 years ago, we set the goal to become the most complete organization in Minor League Baseball – being a part of the fabric of the Upstate community, building strong relationships with industry leaders, and priding ourselves on providing our fans with family-friendly, affordable entertainment that will create everlasting memories,” said Craig Brown, owner and president. “We always strive to make our organization, Fluor Field, and the Upstate better each year, and the Johnson Award is an incredible honor that recognizes our staff, community, and ballpark for the sustained success that we’ve been fortunate to have.” The award is given based on financial stability, contributions to league stability,

contribution to baseball in the community, and promotion of the baseball industry. The Drive is the first South Atlantic League club to win the award. Since the privately funded Fluor Field opened in 2006, the Drive has averaged nearly 335,000 fans per year, and helped spur an economic resurgence of the Historic West End. The Drive completed a $16 million stadium renovation prior to this past season. “The fact that they have spent over $16 million on upgrades to a ballpark that was privately funded to begin with, and brought over 100,000 people to the ballpark for non-baseball events shows their level of dedication to their city,” said Minor League Baseball President Pat O’Conner. On the field, 2017 was a success, too. The Drive won the Sally League championship. —Cindy Landrum

Greenville lands SEC women’s basketball tournament Good news, college basketball fans – the Southeastern Conference women’s basketball tournament is returning to Greenville in 2019 for three consecutive years. A successful 2017 tournament, which saw the University of South Carolina Gamecocks win the title on their way to a national championship, paved the way for the Bon Secours Wellness Arena to host again in 2019, 2020, and 2021. The tournament will be played in Nashville in 2018. “The SEC’s experience in Greenville for our 2017 women’s basketball tournament was outstanding and provided the motivation for our return,” said Commissioner Greg Sankey. He said the city’s hospitality, the quality of the arena, and the SEC’s desire to build on this year’s success paved the way for the three-year commitment. VisitGreenvilleSC worked with the Greenville Arena District to secure the event for the City of Greenville. “No doubt, fans, teams, and coaches all echoed desires for a return after experiencing the energy and exceptional atmosphere of the Bon Secours Wellness

Arena. Coupled with our award-winning dining, shopping, and strolling Main Street, March now positions Greenville, S.C., as the Women’s Basketball Capital of The South,” said Chris Stone, president of VisitGreenvilleSC. In 2017, the SEC women’s tournament had a $1.7 million impact on Greenville. The removal of the Confederate ﬂag from the Statehouse grounds paved the way for the 2017 tournament to come to Greenville. The last time the city hosted the tournament was in 2005. The ﬂag’s removal also allowed Greenville to host the first and second rounds of the NCAA men’s tournament after the games were moved from North Carolina because of that state’s “bathroom bill.” The NCAA men’s tournament will return to Greenville in 2022. Greenville will host the NCAA women’s regional in 2020. —Cindy Landrum

A BEACON OF HOPE The Greenville Modern Widows Club helps women move forward and navigate life after the loss of a partner WORDS BY SARA PEARCE | PHOTO BY WILL CROOKS

The Modern Widows Club (MWC) is more than meets the eye. It’s not just a grief support group or a monthly meeting; it serves as a beacon of hope for women of all ages and belief systems who have lost their partners. The group was founded by Carolyn Moor of Florida, who lost her husband 17 years ago. “I was turned down by two churches to start a widows ministry, because they didn’t think there was enough need. So I kind of laughed and said, ‘OK, I’ll do this myself,’ and that’s where it all started,” she explained. Now there are 19 chapters nationwide, and the Greenville chapter of MWC is the only one in South Carolina. Moor wanted to create an organization that was more than just grief counseling. She also wanted to “empower women in widowhood to lean into life, to build resilience, and to make a positive difference in the world,” she says. The Greenville chapter found its beginnings in the same way as many organizations – through a lot of Googling and emailing. Andrea Peter came across an article in the Wall Street Journal, and upon doing her own research, applied to Moor to start a chapter in the Upstate in 2016. Peter was seeking a place to feel accepted, inspired, and connected to other women who were dealing with the same things she was. Widowhood can be an isolating experience. It is almost taboo to talk about your late partner, and our society is one that is couple-heavy, Peter explains. There are 14 million widows in the United States, and 5 million of them are under the age of retirement. These women are hoping to comfort those feeling isolated, while simultaneously ending the stigma associated with the word “widow.” As an interfaith organization, the MWC does not discriminate against those with different beliefs. Moor felt it was important to include women from all walks of life. “Inclusiveness is where the trust and belonging and opportunity comes from. It’s not about what you believe. It’s

about that we all have one thing in common: We’ve lost the person who we love. The judgment stops there,” she says. This mindset came from the top down, and MWC leadership decided early on that the organization would not discriminate based on religion, age, or sexuality. Peter is determined to help women in the Greenville area find hope and purpose after losing their partner, and to show them they are not alone. In the past year and a half, 34 women have come to meetings at her home. She wanted camaraderie, comfort, and purpose for those who felt lost and didn’t know what the next day would bring. The club meets monthly, but outside of that, the women of Greenville MWC have a relationship with the Ronald McDonald House Charities of the Carolinas. On Sundays, the women cook and serve brunch to the families staying at the house. One of the most beneficial aspects of the MWC is to see women who are a little further along than others into widowhood, and to understand that things will continue to improve. Though the members are in different stages of widowhood, from only a few months to 15 or 20 years, the levels of progress are empowering to each member. A local member, Jamie Thaemert, explains, “There are a lot of private thoughts that you think just belong to you. I found out I’m not crazy because you can voice this and see that other people felt the same way as you.” For these women, to hear phrases like “That happened to me” or “I know how you feel” provides tremendous comfort in the adjustment to widowhood, where each day can pose a new set of struggles. Peter encourages widows to seek out help and companionship while also discovering empowerment, hope, and some laughs along the way. Or as Kam Bosket, another local member, says, “It’s nice, because we’re telling stories about things I did with my husband, and we’re laughing because they are fond memories.”

“Inclusiveness is where the trust and belonging and opportunity comes from. It’s not about what you believe. It’s about that we all have one thing in common: We’ve lost the person who we love. The judgment stops there.”

Greenville Free Medical Clinic celebrates 30 years with a year of special events Greenville Free Medical Clinic marks 30 years with a soiree and a yearlong series of special events. The event, 30 for 30, kicks off Tuesday, Nov. 14, 2017, with a party at the newly opened Rutherford in Greenville. Honorary co-hosts for the event include Mrs. Lee Smith and Dr. and Mrs. Ted Stewart. Smith’s husband, the late Dr. Sam Smith, was a dedicated volunteer and served the clinic from its inception in 1987, until a few weeks before his death earlier this year. “Health care is an ongoing challenge for many, and we are fortunate to have so many physicians, dentists, and health care professionals in Greenville County willing to give their time to help those in need,” says Matthew Utecht, chair of the board of directors of Greenville Free Medical Clinic. “Dr. Sam Smith is a shining example of those who have shaped the clinic and impacted the health of so many in our community.” Additional 30 for 30 events include Walk with the Docs on March 24, 2018, Volunteer Luncheon on April 17, 2018, and a golf tournament planned for fall 2018. A private, nonprofit organization, not subsidized by government funding, the Greenville Free Medical Clinic provides free access to quality medical and dental services, prescription medications, and health education without charge to lowincome, uninsured working residents in Greenville County. In 1987, the clinic opened and provided care two evenings a week. Today, the multispecialty clinic provides care 40 hours a week at the main branch located at 600 Arlington Ave., Greenville. Three satellite locations throughout Greenville County are opened one to two days a week. “We have about 500 volunteers who provide care to working uninsured in Green-

ville County,” Utecht says. “This includes approximately 200 physicians, 70 dentists, as well as nurses, pharmacists, physical therapists, health educators, and behavioral counseling professionals. The 30 for 30 honors those professionals who so generously donate their time and talent for the medically underserved.” Due to the volunteer professional services, as well as donated pharmaceuticals and diagnostic testing, every dollar to operate the clinic results in almost $10 worth of patient care. The 30 for 30 kickoff soiree is open to the public. Tickets are $100 per person and all proceeds are used to support the Greenville Free Clinic.

Allen Tate Realtors Raise $32,000 for Public Education in the Upstate Allen Tate Realtors® in Upstate South Carolina recently raised more than $32,000 to benefit public education, as part of the company’s 20h Annual FUNday event. For the past two decades, Allen Tate agents, employees and guests have gathered each FUNday and “paid to play” to raise money for local public education organizations. This year, four separate regional FUNday events will be held through

the company’s footprint in North and South Carolina. To date, FUNday has raised more than $1.85 million for public education across the Carolinas (not including proceeds from 2017 FUNday events). More than 200 people attended the Upstate event, Hats off to Education, held September 28 at the Old Cigar Warehouse in Greenville, S.C. Attendees wore a variety of hats while participating in silent and live auctions, a diamond drop, wine pull and restaurant raffle. Trophies were awarded for the Most Elegant, Most

Flamboyant and Most Hilarious hats. “We are fortunate to be able to raise funds for public education to help our Upstate children. I am grateful to our agents, sponsors and volunteers who made this event possible through giving of their time and treasure,” said Jennifer A. Hicks, FUNday Upstate event chairperson. “These contributions will allow today’s students to improve themselves so they may, one day, pay it forward to the next generation,” said Hicks. Local education organizations that

will benefit from Allen Tate FUNday dollars include Greenville, Pickens, Spartanburg and Anderson school districts, Public Education Partners and Overbrook Child Development Center. FUNday is made possible through the support of national, regional and local sponsors. Doctorate-level FUNday sponsors included Advantage Inspection, Carolina RES, Closing Contractor, Essex Homes, Meritage Homes, Mungo Homes, Quantum Digital, RiteRug, Ryan Homes and 2-10 Home Warranty.

ne of the primary goals of the Metropolitan Arts Council’s annual Greenville Open Studios is as true today as it was when it was founded a decade and a half ago: demystifying the artistic process. Each year, Greenville’s best artists open their studios for the weekend and invite the public to take a look behind the scenes. This year’s festival runs Nov. 11-12 and will feature a mindboggling 145 artists. Here are a few that caught our eyes.

by chance

Joseph Bradley finds inspiration in everyday observation ANDREW MOORE | STAFF

amoore@communityjournals.com

As a child, Joseph Bradley never expected to pursue a career in the arts. Bradley, the youngest of four children, grew up in rural Greenville in a ramshackle farmhouse with no heat or air-conditioning. His family was close-knit and happy, but he admits, “My upbringing wasn’t exactly conducive to creativity. Most of the people around me worked bluecollar jobs and didn’t really think of art as a profession.” When Bradley enrolled at Bob Jones University in 1995, he contemplated majoring in art but ultimately chose business. It wasn’t until Bradley was held up in a bank robbery during his junior year that he decided to pursue a career in painting. “The robbery happened during my internship at Carolina First Bank in Greer,” says Bradley. “It was a really traumatic event, but it forced me to sit down and consider what I was doing with my life. I actually changed my major to art shortly after the robbery.” After graduation, Bradley became a member of West Greenville’s Art Bomb Studios and worked for several insurance firms during the day to make ends meet. In 2008,

after losing his job, Bradley decided to work full-time as an artist. He eventually purchased his own studio space in the Village of West Greenville. Bradley has since produced a large collection of paintings that are sold around the world. His work largely focuses on a variety of animals and landscapes, a niche he says was inspired by childhood hunting trips. “I went hunting with my dad and older brother for years, but I never actually shot anything. I would just sit in my tree stand and watch things unfold in front of me. It really gave me an appreciation for observing nature,” he says. While he doesn’t hunt anymore, Bradley finds inspiration from past experiences in the outdoors and daily observations. Some of his most recent pieces, for instance, feature cardinals sitting in a tree, a fox hunting rabbits, and koi fish swimming in a pond. “My work is about appreciating the relationship we have to our environment and depicting our emotional responses to it,” he added. “That’s why I paint things that I have a connection with, things that I experience or see around me. It’s more organic that way.” Each of Bradley’s paintings is process-oriented and

features multiple forms of media. He usually begins each work with a graphite drawing on a large wooden panel and then adds more than 30 layers of oil, glazes, and washes. Bradley also incorporates multiple layers of gold and silver leaf to create imagery that’s reminiscent of the religious icons he admires. “Bob Jones has an amazing art collection, and I absolutely loved the Christian icons, especially how they use metal leaf to indicate that something is precious and should be contemplated,” said Bradley. “As I developed my own technique in college, I started using metal leaf in my backgrounds to really create that classical look.” Today, Bradley shows his work in Chicago, New York City, Houston, and Charleston. He has also produced work for private collectors and corporations, including Greenville Health System and Milliken. Bradley is currently working alongside Greenville’s Marco Suarez, co-founder of Methodical Coffee and a former product designer for Etsy, to transform his artwork into a line of home products. The collection is expected to be complete sometime next year. Portrait by Will Crooks / Staff

the urban trail

From faded street signs to manhole covers, Sylvie Bucher examines the overlooked parts of city life JOSHUA S. KELLY | CONTRTIBUTOR

A Greenville resident since 2014, printmaker Sylvie Bucher thinks of the city as her “playground.” According to her artist statement, Bucher creates art as a reaction to her surroundings. “I never know what my artwork will be. … I explore every common thing and especially letters [and signs] we don’t pay attention to.” Manhole covers, forgotten signs, and the faded letters of old street signs – these often-overlooked boundary markers and identifiers of our modern society fascinate Bucher and populate her recent work. After graduating from school in her native France in 2000, Bucher spent 14 years leading and creating workshops for the disabled in different locations in France, Finland, and Canada. But after moving to the United States, she has begun working on personal projects again.

Bucher doesn’t set out to create specific works; she is “always on the road, looking with a sharp eye for the subject of my next piece.” After taking in the various sights on whatever “urban trail” she chooses to trek across, she reflects on the things that caught her eyes, and the rubbings of the textures she encountered along her way. After reflecting and processing, sometimes for months, the works she creates offer a unique way of seeing Greenville and the parts of it usually overlooked. Under her gallery of work on her website, Bucher explains, “I reinvent the picture of a city, street, or neighborhoods by interlacing all kind of signs, hand-lettering, pictograms… like a travel diary full of unexpected events.” Most of her work features one or two colors, mixed with strong contrasting lines and patterns in black and white or sometimes earth tones. For Bucher, the contrast

is an ode to black-and-white street photography, a genre of art born from the act of exploring city streets looking for a fresh way to see the ordinary. The most prominent symbol in Bucher’s work, besides bold lettering, is the repetition of fish. Some works, like “Broad Street,” feature a single fish, colorful and bright, almost lost in a sea of letters from road signs. In works like “Main Street,” the fish overwhelm the words, jumping over each other in a frenzied pace. This interplay between the fish and their wordy surroundings reflect how we as humans are often unaware of the details of our urban lives, sometimes seemingly lost among the mindboggling amount of information around us, and yet always pulled back into the hustle of the crowds of city life.

paper trails

When Judy Verhoeven decided to pursue art full time following two decades split between being a graphic designer and a stay-athome home schooling mom, she revisited an art form that had been a staple of her adolescence. “I’ve been doing collage for a lot longer than I thought,” Verhoeven says. “When I was a kid – I would say about 13, 14, 15 – I had my friends save gum wrappers, and I did a huge collage using gum wrappers.” And a few weeks prior to speaking with the Greenville Journal, she adds, a former art teacher from Mauldin High School returned to her a collage she had completed during her time as a student. “For some reason, the idea of including paper in my work has been something I just do, and I’m not really sure why,” Verhoeven says. The paper used in her collages is almost all recycled and mainly sourced from secondhand books and maps. Verhoeven has even made use of her son’s old homework from his courses in Clemson University’s engineering program. “That math looks like a foreign language to me, and it makes an interesting painted paper when you see the symbols and things,” she says. When Verhoeven paints and stains her papers – the first step in making a collage – she mixes acrylics with water so that whatever imagery or text is on the paper remains preserved and visible. “I sometimes make stamps or stamp a simple pattern on it. I have several techniques I use to create pattern and texture,” she says. “It’s not physical texture. It doesn’t feel any different; it just looks different.” Once that process is finished, Verhoeven stores her newly painted papers in files, picking out pieces and cutting and gluing when she’s ready to begin a new work. Verhoeven’s collages often depict landscapes and animals, particularly birds, owls, and dogs. “I adore dogs. There’s the expression, ‘What would Jesus do?’ I sometimes think, ‘What would dogs do?’” she says. “They embody the spirit of love. When I’m working with dogs specifically, there’s kind of a spiritual thing going on.” Working in the “absolutely gorgeous” city of Greenville and having an attic studio both provide Verhoeven with a vantage point that constantly provides new inspiration. “I’m seeing the treetops and the bones of the trees in the winter and the bright green in the spring. I’m seeing birds,” she says. “I can’t help but be inspired by what I see every single day. There’s so much beauty everywhere I look.”

the carpenter

For Bob Ripley, working with wood is a family affair VINCENT HARRIS | CONTRIBUTOR

vharris@communityjournals.com

Bob Ripley works primarily in metals and wood, and his creations can range from an impossibly detailed and intricate portrait to a beautifully made door. It’s a combination of artistic ability and craftsmanship that he comes by naturally. “The connection that I have with wood in particular is that my grandfather and my uncle were carpenters,” he says. “I feel very comfortable working with wood because I would help my grandfather make stuff around my home as a child.” But it wasn’t until Ripley quit his job as an electronics technician at age 40 that he began to create artwork.

As for the reason why, well, some people become artists because it’s their lifelong passion. Others do so because of an attractive librarian. “This is the story that changed my life,” Ripley says. “I was working as an electronic technician and I used to go to this wonderful technical library. And there was this cute librarian there. I went over to her desk and started talking to her, and she asked, ‘What do you do?’ and I started to tell her about my job. She said, ‘No, no, what do you do when you’re not a work?’ And I thought, out loud, ‘Well I go home and drink beer and watch TV and eat dinner and go to bed, and the next morning I get up and go to work.’ She turned her back to me and faced the other way, as if to say, ‘Well, if you don’t have a life, why should I talk to you?’ And I thought, ‘I get it.’ I started

taking art classes at night at a community college in San Diego.” No word if Ripley ever went back to that library with a new story, but he did discover a new purpose. “I found a new joy, a new avocation,” he says. This will be Ripley’s fourth year at Open Studios, and he says he’s thrilled by the opportunity to show people the different things he can do with a good piece of wood. “It’s an adventure for folks who don’t typically go see where an artist works or their process,” he says. “I started doing it in an effort to open myself to others. I do a lot of different things. It gives me a chance to expose what I do to the public.” Portrait by Will Crooks / Staff

vharris@communityjournals.com

At first glance, many of Vivian Morris’ creations, which she makes through a combination of woodwork and printmaking, look like animals and creatures that one might find in animated TV shows or movies. A horned, hairy monster glares at the viewer in one of her pieces; a group of supernatural ghouls hover around a man’s bed in another. But take a closer look; there’s often an expression on these creatures’ faces that goes deeper than fear or fantasy. Often, these otherworldly beasts seem frightened, confused, or even hopeful instead of ferocious. “I find this work a representation of the people in our world,” Morris says. “I think everyone has a dark side and a light side. I like mixing those in my pieces. I like making the creature that would normally be the monster doing something unexpected so that it shows that they have another side, too.” The process of creating all of these wondrous, painfully human creatures essentially using a block of wood is an arduous one, but Morris says she loves the work. “I really like that it’s very hands on,” she says. “A lot of work goes into the process, and I feel like I can really get to know my characters. The carving is my favorite part. It’s like you’re able to give them life.” She also enjoys the fact that the end results are rarely what she initially intended. “The pieces usually end up looking totally different than I planned,” she says. “And it’s exciting to do that.” Part of the reason Morris decided to be part of the Open Studios event this year is to educate people on what woodblock printing actually is. “I’ll be able to show people the process,” she says. “They’ll see the press, the carving tools, the wood, every part of it. I think it will be a good education for people and also a good chance for me to see people’s reactions to it.” Portrait by Will Crooks / Staff

Ken Christy lets the wood speak to him as much as he shapes it

KEN CHRISTY Woodworking 311 McCrary St.

JOSHUA S. KELLY | CONTRTIBUTOR

For almost four decades, Ken Christy has been sculpting baptismal founts, crosses, liturgical lecterns, and alters from local hardwoods found in the Appalachians. The richness of the colors and variety of texture found in the local timber allow him to work with woods he feels naturally complement the final outcome. “I depend on the grain patterns and natural colors of the materials to enhance the beauty and flow of the design,” he says. When he was starting to learn his craft, Christy carved sculptures out of blocks of wood depicting figures and scenes of religious compassion and grace, such as his work “Crown of Thorns.” Later, he turned to furniture making. Picking up this new skill allowed him to reflect on his earlier work with a new perspective. “Making furniture, I learned to appreciate the long curve of a piece of wood,” Christy says.

By mixing old and new techniques, Christy’s work grew from beautiful carved works into sculptural furniture that highlighted the natural elegance of the wood he carved from. A great example of how Christy’s furniture can reflect the lines found in nature are his music stands. The slope of the legs, the gentle waves of the sheet holder, how no visible line is straight or ridged; every aspect of the stand asks the viewer to think about where this sculpture came from – not who sculpted the work, but the magnificence of nature and its creator. Christy takes his craft and role as a liturgical carpenter seriously; Exodus 35:10 is the headline of the About the Artist page on his website. The passage is an assurance from God to Moses that the right craftsmen would be found to construct the holy temple, with the reminder that those craftsmen had within them wisdom bestowed by God. Christy’s work reflects this understanding between God, nature, and the craftsman in both purpose and form. Sometimes, especially more recently, he finds wood that he can repurpose for his work. “Using wood not designed for furniture can create a very unique look,” Christy says, while talking about how he likes to use billets, the chunky pieces of wood used to support loads of massive conduit and other construction materials during shipping. For woodworkers like Christy, there is beauty in all types of wood, and sometimes the most intriguing textures and colors come from leftover and discarded materials others don’t think are useful anymore. “It is a great joy to rescue something from being nothing, and turn it into something more,” he says.

wearable art Kate Furman unleashes the natural beauty of the objects she collects SARA PEARCE | EDITORIAL INTERN

spearce@communityjournals.com

Kate Furman has long pursued a career in jewelry and metalworking. In high school, she went to the Fine Arts Center, then earned a BFA in jewelry and metalworking from the University of Georgia and an MFA at Rhode Island School of Design. Furman never wavered in her desire to become a jewelry maker, and that determination has paid off, as she now works full time in the Village of West Greenville. Growing up, Furman was always exposed to the outdoors. She even spent five years as a whitewater rafting guide. That passion for nature is evident in almost all of Furman’s pieces, from woods to gems to metal, as you can feel each piece’s natural signature. Furman says she finds inspiration wherever she goes, whether it’s from purchased stones or natural objects that she collects and molds directly. “I think of everything being a souvenir of a moment or a place,” she says. Furman’s work has been showcased all over the world, from Australia to the Netherlands. Many of her larger, avant-garde pieces go to her dealer in New York and are sold to art collectors and interior designers. But her focus isn’t solely on those works, as she also has an extensive collection of wearable jewelry, ranging from necklaces to brooches. Her jewelry designs are simple and natural, and are meant to be dressed up or down. “People think of my signature look as the large, signature pieces, but I do lots of smaller, wearable pieces. I’ve even done custom work, like wedding bands,” she says. Now that Furman has made the switch to a larger studio and full-time career, she has big plans in store. She recently was featured in Metalsmith Magazine, arguably the most notable publication in her creative field. Furman says she loves the art community in the Village of West Greenville and hopes it continues to grow in the coming years. She’s happy to have inspiration so close to her studio, as her mother, visual artist Linda Q. Furman, is just around the corner. Furman says she hopes to continue to build the jewelry-making program at the Greenville Center for Creative Arts, as well as support the growth of the local art community.

wo decades ago, Carl Sobocinski and David Williams saw something special in the building at 207 S. Main St. in downtown Greenville. Originally constructed in the waning days of the 19th century, the structure had been a cotton exchange, grocery store, bicycle shop, and shoe store. Sobocinski and Williams decided to completely refurbish the space, and on Nov. 7, 1997, they opened Soby’s New South Cuisine. And in the process, they sparked a culinary revolution in downtown Greenville. In the years that followed, the South Main eatery spawned the Table 301 restaurant group and a string of downtown offerings, including Soby’s on the Side, The Lazy Goat, Nose Dive Gastropub, Passerelle Bistro, Papi’s Tacos, Southern Pressed Juicery, and Jianna. Countless cheddar and garlic biscuits later, Sobocinski talks about the chaos of opening night and the success that soon followed.

What was that feeling on opening night?

Opening night was filled with so many emotional highs. We had spent 10 months building the restaurant from demolition to construction to putting the finishing touches on the décor, tableware, server uniforms, etc. that I couldn’t wait another minute to open the doors and see the first guests walk through. Actually, the doors weren’t even hung yet and wouldn’t be hung for three more days, so we had a black curtain over the front doors and security guards hired to protect the restaurant

after closing each night. I remember that this was pre-smartphones, and while I think I had a cellphone, we didn’t text or take photos, so the most amazing and memorable thing about opening night was leaving about 3:30 in the afternoon to go home and shower and [get] dressed for opening night, and everything was down to the wire, and when I left the tables were just being moved onto the barely dried and cured hardwood floors, so I left not seeing the restaurant set up, and by the time I returned, the tables, chairs, and place settings were all perfectly laid out, and I saw the dining room as we had always imagined it all set and ready to receive guests.

Did you think Soby’s was going to make it?

I certainly thought we would make it, but we had planned for a two- to three-year timeframe to see a return on our investment. By Soby’s first anniversary, we had paid back all of our investors. I knew that we had an incredible team of passionate people who loved our community, the art of hospitality, guest service, food, wine, and each other, and so with that I felt success would be achieved and that we would be here for a very long time.

When did you know it would?

We opened on Nov. 7, 1997, and by Thanksgiving, we knew we had something special. We had a 200-seat restaurant with 100 up and 100 down, and at opening we only thought we would need the downstairs and that the upstairs would be for private events on an event-by-

event basis. By Thanksgiving, we were installing a server station upstairs, a service bar, tables, and chairs to be able to seat the mezzanine on a nightly basis. We haven’t looked back.

What did you do right?

We have just gone out every night trying to give 100 percent and make people smile. We aren’t saving lives in this industry. We are serving people. People that we have no idea what they have going on in their life, what kind of day they’ve had, what they are battling with, or what successes they are celebrating. We just go out every night and do our best to put a smile on people’s faces and deliver the highest quality product and service.

Where do you see Soby’s changing and

remaining the same and relevant in the current local restaurant scene?

Honestly, I think Soby’s will be the mainstay of downtown dining. We will be the place that epitomizes the South, Southern cuisine, enlightened hospitality, and a place that locals will recommend that guests visit at least once during their stay. We are always trying to improve, stay fresh, innovative, and relevant, but we welcome some of the newer chefs and restaurants to take the lead on some of the more modern cooking styles and cuisines. We know our place and are grateful for the support these last 20 years and look forward to sharing the next 20 years with our staff and guests.

Fiction Addiction will host New York Times bestselling author Denise Kiernan to discuss her new book, “The Last Castle.” “The Last Castle” is the fascinating true story behind the largest residence ever built in the United States, the Biltmore House. The book tells the story of Edith Stuyvesant Dresser, who was orphaned at a young age but claimed lineage from one of New York’s wealthiest families. She was married to George Vanderbilt, who at the time was dedicated to building a spectacular estate on 125,000 acres in the North Carolina wilderness. As mistress of the Biltmore estate, she is called upon to help when the family falls upon troubled times. The story of Biltmore spans both World Wars and the Depression, and it features fascinating real characters who helped the legacy of the Biltmore endure to this day. The event will feature a Q&A, discussion, and book signing with Kiernan. –Sara Pearce

“The Unknown Soldier” “The Unknown Soldier” explores themes such as duty, courage, and sacrifice through two parallel plots of those exposed to war. The story follows 13-yearold Charlie, who is coping with his father’s PTSD upon his return from Afghanistan. Through the discovery of old war letters to his aunt, Charlie learns the story of Albert, a 16-year-old soldier in WWI. Charlie soon learns the similarities that exist and gains perspective on the lives of soldiers, nurses, and the families that they leave behind. This show helps explain the universal meaning of the “unknown soldier” and the sacrifices they make. “The Unknown Soldier” timed its tour in honor of the centenary of World War I and the United States’ entry into the war in 1917. –Sara Pearce

Greenville’s Tom Angst has created such a beguiling sound in their short time together that the conflicting emotions in their lyrics can sometimes pass by in a blur of layered guitars and singer Danielle McConaghy’s calm, beguiling vocals. But with song titles like “Inferiority Complex,” “I’m Probably Overthinking It,” and “Suicide Sucks,” all from their recent self-titled EP, it’s clear that underneath that effortlessly catchy surface, all is not well. And that juxtaposition is exactly how the band wants it. “I wanted to be able to make something good out of a bad situation,” McConaghy says. “The lyrics can be hard, but if the music’s hard, too, then everyone’s just going to stand there and cry. If you don’t want to think about it and you just want to dance to it, you can. The lyrics are about how I feel, but musically it’s OK if the audience is having a good time with it.” The band formed from another group called Quality Time, with McConaghy stepping away from her solo acoustic performing to become their new singer. “I asked [bassist] Jonah Hunter to play with me, and eventually everyone else from Quality Time came over and we started Tom Angst,” she says. “I kind of stole a band, I guess.” —Vincent Harris

“Devotion,” the new album by the Rhode Island trio Roz & The Rice Cakes, isn’t so much something to be listened to as it is something to dive into. While singer and keyboard player Roz Grace’s high, airy voice weaves blissful melodies over the top, the rhythm section of Casey Belisle and Justin Foster blend tricky time signatures and soothing instrumental textures, creating moments of tension and release. It’s indie-rock run from a spacier perspective, and in terms of a complete sound it’s beyond anything the band has done before. “Devotion” also took almost two years for them to make, but not because the band was having a hard time with it. “We recorded it at Big Ni studio in Rhode Island with Bradford Krieger,” Belisle says. “Working with him was great because the studio was close by, and we could take a couple of days at a time to record songs and play around with ideas in the studio.” The leisurely pace was important, because the band had essentially been on the road nonstop for five years. “We took some time to write songs and to collect ourselves individually, and it really honed us in,” Belisle says. —Vincent Harris

CONCERT

YOU NEED YOUR HEARING CHECKED

NOV. 8

Charleston’s High Divers were gearing up for some big things back in June of this year. They were preparing to release a follow-up to their well-received country-rock album, “Riverlust,” and for the first time, their touring schedule included a string of West Coast dates. But those plans were put on hold after a terrifying accident. “We were on our way out west, and we got t-boned by a semi in Arizona,” says singer/guitarist Luke Mitchell. “It flipped our van. We all had to go to the hospital, and our equipment was all over the road. It wasn’t fun. I don’t recommend it.” The physical injuries would heal, some of them more slowly than others, but Mitchell says the mental scars still remain. “We took a month off after the wreck, and it was pretty depressing sitting at home and looking at all these shows we were supposed to do going by,” he says. “We’d look at the calendar and think, ‘We were supposed to be in Colorado today.’ But ultimately we’re just thankful to be here.” Though still nursing some injuries, the band has been able to get back onstage again, and their new more rock-oriented album will be out in February. “We keep going after it because we love what we’re doing,” Mitchell says. —Vincent Harris
